Honey Mustard Chicken Salad

This honey mustard chicken salad is sweet, tangy and loaded with lots of crunch! It’s a delicious, light yet filling meal or the perfect flavor-packed side.

This salad will be on repeat all summer long! It’s loaded with all of my favorite things and ready to go in just 30 minutes.

Best of all? My kids devour it!

Ever since our kids started eating real food, I’ve kind of stopped making salad for dinner. We usually stick to some kind of roasted or steamed veggie instead. It’s a shame, because I’m a big salad person. Our four year old will eat almost anything we give him, including salad. Our two year old on the other hand is just warming up to the idea of eating “leaves.” 🤣

I’ve been slowly re-introducing them into our rotation by making them for lunch. I can eat them and they can try them. We have our staple (I’ll be sharing that later this summer) but you know me, I like to mix things up. I’ve made at least three recently and they’ve all been hits. 🙌🏻

This honey mustard chicken salad was the first and probably one of my favorites because it’s easy.

And lately I NEED easy! I’m sure I’m not alone!!

I grabbed this dressing at Whole Foods the other day because it was one of the few I could find without some kind of dairy or soy. It’s soooo good! Light, sweet, tangy and fresh tasting. If you saw the Italian pasta salad I shared a few days back, I used another Cindy’s Kitchen dressing and it was also delish!

Again, this is not sponsored or anything, it was just a great find so I wanted to share. 🍯😁

I figured I could use it on greens with whatever we had on hand, and that’s exactly what I did.

I cleaned out our fridge and cooked up the bacon and chicken. While they were cooking I chopped up everything else. Everything was done in just under 30 minutes. Pretty good if you ask me!

This made an extra large lunch or dinner size portion. You could easily divide it up into two filling sides or even four small salad portions.

I ate this bad boy all by myself. 😋Of course, I did share with my kiddos here and there.

We all agreed, I needed to make this again!

If you’re tired of the same old dinner salad or want something extra delicious to share at your next gathering, you’ve gotta make this honey mustard chicken salad! It’s sweet, tangy, crunchy and perfect for any occasion!
